The Black Delta Movement were a force of nature at Water Rats last night
The Black Delta Movement are finally able to bring their first album out into the world, and last night they give it life in a thunderous live performance.
Having formed all the way back in 2010, these accomplished garage rockers from Hull have proven they know a thing or two about transforming a record into a storming live show. They're currently touring their debut LP Preservation (released this August) which brings together all their best work from the past eight years. At the King’s Cross pub/venue, Water Rats, they hit the stage with a full force of energy and noise.
They crash through some of their more powerful tracks such as “King Mosquito” and the newest release from the LP, “Let The Rain Come”. Their electricity grips the intimate room, as turbulent guitar noise blasts through the darkness. They’re a band whose energy refuses to let up.
Producing sounds reminiscent of 90s and early noughties rock, there are clear influences from bands likeThe Brian Jonestown Massacre and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, but The Black Delta Movement’s live show is polished and confidently their own. Being able to boast of support slots for bands such as The Jesus and Mary Chain and Drenge just proves they know what they’re doing.
They continue to take Preservation on the road across the UK throughout October and November.
